Expander button for Dillon Rifle dies

[jaysouth]

The expander button that Dillon ships on their .308 rifle dies is .308. They do not carry any other size buttons.

Does anyone know of a solution? I would like to have a .310 expander for loading cast bullets. Will any other brands like Foster fit on the dillon depriming spindle?

Will a Hornady or Foster depriming spindle fit in a dillon die body?

In the archive, I found a post by Larry Gibson on how to set up a 550 with a Lyman M die in the first position to bell and size necks, assuming that you are using fully processed brass that has been sized, primed and de-lubed in a seperate operation.

"If you size, delube, inspect If you size, delube, inspect case and clean primer pockets seperately;

Station #1; M-die
Station #2 dispence powder
Station #3; seat bullet
Station #4; crimp, if necessary

That's how I do it and it works very well."

It would have taken me some time to figure than one out. Thanks Larry.

Contact them. They will make what you want.

They made me a pistol style funnel for 22 TCM and it works great.
On another note, I use a 30 carbine funnel for my 300 blackout and it works PERFECT too.

Does this bell the case mouth? I went to their ebay ad and it does not address that feature.

Thanks for the response.

What about just cutting down a .32 acp powder funnel to the correct length, likely be the cheapest way.

$30 shipped is about what gs customs charges. That's pretty cheap and if you don't have any machine tools its the best route

This happens to be a 30 carbine 'C' funnel works great for 300 blackout.

I have read that before but didn't bother posting it because he was looking for a .310 expander. He would still need to polish .0015 off of a 32 acp expander to hit his target OD.

Your $30 shipped custom funnel looks like a winner.
